And the baby is...

So excited about adding a fourth little girl to our family! I announced the gender on Instagram a little while ago just after we found out, but I realized I really should announce it here for you guys!

We were thinking because of so many similarities between this one and John's that this one would be a boy as well, but John is destined to be sandwiched between two girls on either side I guess! :)

This is the fourth time I've seen one of our little babies up on the screen (since our second, Sophie, was a surprise), and I'm still not used to it! I'd been feeling her kicking for a while, and I'd certainly been sick enough (not to mention the positive tests) that I was totally positive I was pregnant, but my heart still jumped a little when I saw her little body up on the screen for the first time. Our bodies really are so amazing! She would not hold still for the longest time-I was worried we'd leave without a verdict after waiting so long and driving all that way, but our technician (who turned out to be a lovely follower!) was awesome and it all worked out!

Thank you all for your comments reminding me to share this fun news, and also thank you all so much for your support and participation in all the crazy amounts of giveaways that have been taking over recently! haha It's felt awesome to post them finally and I can't wait till I can start announcing the winners! Ahh!

Congratulations! You must have your hands full with four little ones and being sick? I'm so tired with this pregnancy I don't know what I would do if I had hour kids instead of one running around. You are one rock-star mama!

Congrats! You will have so much fun with so many little ones and this baby! I'm almost 6 months along with my first and I was FOR SURE it was a girl, but it's a boy! Funny how that happens. I'm looking forward to seeing all your pregnancy posts!

Congratulations!I am reading your blog for quite some time now and I am amazed, how you manage to have a career, be a stay at home mom, focus on your family and still be so pretty, full of life. You inspire me. I would love to have a family like yours and looking at your blog assures me that being a "stay at home mom" is not giving up on something. It means gaining so much more.In today's world I feel like I am being judged for wanting to one day focus on family, for prioritizing it over a career. It seems that people think that deciding to be a full time mother is something that shouldn't be praised. Your blog shows me that this is not true and that being a mom does not mean that I am loosing out in life. On the contrary.Thank you for being so inspirational.Best of luck!

Oooooooooohhh!!! My favorite thing in the world is a cute, adorable little baby and a GIRL more so, just cause She'd be like a little tiny doll! :O You really should catalog Your baby girls! Hah!And John is going to be OOOONEE BIIIG Gentleman when He grows up. Any lady would die for Him as He'll know how to properly treat a good woman ^_^

PS: I have 3 sisters i.e. We are 4 girls and it is so much fun with Mommy, like a girls' club
